Best Rower on a Budget: Row for it!

[@rodolfomedini9931]

Concept2 is still king... The fitness reality model demonstrating the equipment probably rowed for the first time filming that video, something looked off.

Not anymore the rogue rower is king

First of all budget is under $350. So I'm not sure if this is click bait, a concept 2 is not a budget row get real shame on you.

[@nisseluren]

350 might be budget for you. For other people 1000 might be budget.

[@johnjones-d9b]

Therefore we take the average consumer price range to come to a price point in marketing. That is why no one at C2 would every market their rower as a budget rower.@@nisseluren

That's subjective. Of the rowers I'd consider worth buy, the concept 2 is the cheapest. The cheap ones are junk. Rowers are exoensive. The concept of "budget" has to be relative the product being considered. There is no one fixed dollar value for "budget". I would consider budget to be in the bottom third of the price range.

[@johnjones-d9b]

@@toby9999 The term "budget" typically implies lower-than-average prices, but for a KZbin channel targeting those willing to spend $900 to $1000, it's misleading. Instead, the channel should use a title like "lowest price for all who can afford." For individuals focused on general fitness rather than rowing enthusiasts, budget equipment complements their main gear. Personal experience as an MMA instructor highlights the preference for affordable options that meet basic fitness needs.

The sunny rower is literally 220 dollars what, shame on you for casting shame

[@TimDudek]

I have the pro-form rower. It's a great budget choice.

The C2 is absolutely brilliant and will last forever. The Company stands behind their products and still supports the model A made in 1985.

I wish more of the rowing machine that gym in my country and city will have in indonesia. I have been going to gyms to look for it. I found one water rowing machine that are broken in my hometown city. Its so sad😢 cause i really wanna use it to exercise. They probably dont have the tehcnitian and spareparts to repair it. (I got a air rowing combine with mechanical treadmill in the capital city which i usually use to exercise).

[@richiejames928]

I dunno why anyone would get anything other than a C2. Even if you can’t afford a brand new one. There’s always one for sale near you that will row exactly the same as a new one. Concept 2 for life!

[@t14dann18]

Why would you spend on it; seems worse than magnetic resistance

[@richiejames928]

@@t14dann18 It’s not. there’s a reason the entire professional rowing community worldwide use concept 2 machine. they are literally the best and an industry standard.

[@david_4739]

You're absolutely right *but* there's a good reason people like me don't go for the Concept 2 - living in poorly sound-proofed apartments. Unless you're a sociopath or you hate your downstairs neighbours, you feel obliged to find a quieter rower. Someone needs to invent some kind of sound proofed box for the Concept 2 so we can still use it in an apartment.

[@richiejames928]

@@david_4739 you don’t live near a gym? every gym on earth has a concept 2. plus all the other equipment included with the membership. And no upset neighbours.

[@videosabia]

Simple. All reviews say C2 is a loud machine. Many of us live in apartments and being considerate of others is the kind thing to do. Also, many ppl are simply looking for a moderate range of full body workout (elderly or people with certain health impediments), something simple, compact, without all bells and whistles and budget friendly.

Did you match the Pantone color of green of logo rower with your green pants?

Under $300 budget rower? A Concept 2 Model B!

[@Epiha]

On a budget? Saving a few dollars or a hundred is hard stretch to call it a budget. This video pretty much confirms C2 is the best available rower with a proven track record for performance, durability, and reliability and that supposed budget options are severely limited by any comparison to the C2. Let's be honest the best budget rower is a used C2 on Market Place or Craigslist.
